UNIVERSITY ANDEAN COLLEGE, cbc
INTRODUCTION
The Program of the University Andean College of the Bartolome de Las
Casas Center offers intensive language courses of Quechua, Aimara and
Spanish.
Quechua and Aimara languages are spoken by millions of people in the
Andean space and involve a millenary historical past. At present,
these languages deserve a new social space and have presence in the
cities, schools and other centers of study, as well as in the means
of communication and in the writing level in general terms.
Therefore, it is important to promote the learning and use of these
Andean languages.
Spanish is a language that each time acquires more international
importance, and is one of the most common languages in the world. Its
presence is specially significant in Latin America, where it coexists
with Quechua, Aymara and other Amerindian languages. Foreigners,
specially the ones interested in Andean and Latin American subjects,
will find in our courses the communicative tools they need.
Through language teaching, the University Andean College seeks to
develop the communicative aptitudes of the students in order to break
the linguistic barriers and motivate the equitable exchange among
individuals and human groups.

themselves in space and time, and to dialogue with their
interlocutors.
The intermediate level consolidates what is learned in a basic level
and implies more abilities in the interpretation and in the
production of the oral tradition and literature.
The advanced level leads to a fluent and correct use of the various
types of discourse by stimulating conversation and text analysis of
oral tradition and literature.
